[IC] Fairy Tail: We Are Family

[BlackCat]

Fuyu took the cookies out of the oven. Just then her mother and Aki came downstairs. Her mom came over and brushed a strand of hair out of Fuyu's face. This was the woman who left Fuyu without a home as soon as she learned that Fuyu had magic, and then did the same to Aki.
"Don't touch me, you bitch," Fuyu wasn't normally this mean but things changed when her parents were around. And no matter how nice her parents were being it didn't fix the past.
"I'm just trying to be nice. I even made you cookies," her mother responded, not mad at all.
"Well I'll have you know that I'm not about to let some bitch who abandoned me and Aki make me cookies and take care of me. If you wanted to do that you could have done instead of leaving me on the streets," Fuyu spat back at her.
Aki was just happy that her mother wasn't being a jerk. She was also amazes that their mother went to the trouble of making cookies. Aki tiptoed over to the cookies and grabbed two. She ate one. And then shoved the other one in her mouth. They were delicious.

Everyone ate dinner together and mingled. After some thought, Layla thought it was strange seeing her grandmother here but the thought quickly disappeared. Some part of her knew she was here to have the time of her life. Anyway, she had the twelve gate keys! Her mother had told her legends of the twelve zodiac coming together, but she never thought it would happen, especially not to her. "I must be an extremely powerful celestial wizard mom." She said to Lucy. "You leaned it from me Layla" Lucy grinned at her daughter.

When Leon reaches the bottom of the stairs and steps off into the living room, his eyes widen in shock as he sees his brother Michael and his wife, Olivia. "Oh, brother! You're awake." Michael responds, being the first of the two to see him. He notices that his hair is back to its pure shade of white and his eyes are so kind. Olivia turns around at this, and smiles cheerily when she sees Leon. "Leon! I"m glad you've come to join us." With that said, she walks over and hugs him, which adds unto his shock. As she hugs him, Leon hears a door open. To add to his surprise, Morgan and her brother Inigo enter the room. "Uncle! You're awake!" Morgan exclaims. "It's about time. You always seem to sleep through everything." Inigo said sarcastically. "I'm..sorry to have kept all of you waiting.." Leon says, feeling happier then he has in a long while. Everyone gathered around in a group hug. "I've missed you all so much..." This thought reduces Leon to tears. One by one, they streak down his face...

The men came to the open space were they began to pretend fight, the girls cheering them on and handing out there favorite beverage. In truth he was having the most fun he had in years, he refused to think about the fact they were dead something in his mind wouldn't let that happen. Realizing his was in his 'mother's' house he noticed she wasn;t there, he didn't mind as he never wanted to talk to her anyway, all she did was put him through hard ship and nearly kill him, the small amount of times they shared together were nothing in comparison to the pain she gave him.

"Hey mom do you think I could go see Layla?" Ashkii asked her mom who turned around to look at her daughter. "Who's Layla?" Her mom asked and Ashkii frowned. "She's my best friend. She's Lucy's daughter." She said looking at her mom with her blue eyes filled with confusion. "Ashy are you feeling alright? Lucy doesn't have a daughter. You should know that." Her mom said and Ashkii gasped N-no Layla?! What kind of world is this without my best friend. She thought "I'm going to go to my room and get some sleep..." Ashkii said and she quickly ran up stairs to her room.

"Darling, I never abandoned you," Fuyu's mother told her. That wasn't right, It can't be real. It had to be a dream, maybe caused by magic. Fuyu didn't know for sure. She just knew that this wasn't right. Someone could manipulate her dreams but not her memories.
"Oh darling mother," Fuyu said sarcastically, before returning to her normal tone, "If you never abandoned me than my name isn't Fuyu and Aki isn't my sister."
Aki went upstairs to see what her room was like.
"Normally one would also say their last name when saying that," Fuyu's mother told her.
"Well, I'll have you know that after a certain somebody, and no prize for guessing who, abandoned me, I decided to stop using your last name. And can I go see my guild mates?' Fuyu asked.
"Guild mates? your not part of a guild,"
Fuyu wasn't part of a guild. What messed up kind of dream was this. She ran upstairs and found Aki, "This is terrible, its like nothing ever happened. Mom doesn't think that she ever abandoned us and we never joined Fairy Tail."

After they finished eating, one of the maids came to the table stating the guests were here.
"Guests? Mom are we expecting people?" Layla asked confused.

"Don't you remember Layla? Ashkii was babysitting your sister Nashi. Everything alright dear?" Her mother asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Wait,Sister? Nashi? I don't have a sister though.." Layla mind was swimming with questions but slowly they all left and she was happy again. "I better go let them in! I'll be right back!" She called and ran to the door. She finally noticed she was wearing a pink dress, a tradition in her family. Her grandmother had wore it and even though her mother had ripped it, seamstresses quickly made a new one.

Ashkii sat down on her bed and she looked around her room. The room's color was pink. I hate pink....this isn't paradise. Not without my friends or my guild mates. She thought as she curled up on her bed and fell asleep. She soon awoke but instead of being in her bedroom she was outside on a sidewalk. She bolted right up and spotted Layla beside her. What the hell?! She thought as she shook her head trying to make sense of what just happened.

[BlackCat]

"Audible Gasp," Aki muttered as she looked at Fuyu. Fuyu went to her room. "What the crap is this, its filled with stuffed animals. I don't like them anymore,' She shouted. She threw herself facedown on her bed. Maybe if she just fell asleep then she would wake up and find that it would just be a bad dream. As soon as Fuyu fell asleep she woke up. She lifted her head off the table. It was the real world.

Meanwhile, in the dream place
Aki sat in her room. It was perfect and she loved it. She walked over to Fuyu's room only to find that she wasn't there. Maybe she went to the guild. But, Fuyu had said that they had never joined int his world. Aki ran downstairs.
"Mom, did Fuyu leave?" She asked.
"Yes, she said that she wanted to go on a walk. Go set the table, dinner is almost ready," Her mother told her.

As Layla came to the entrance of her home, Ashli stood holding a little girls hand. The girl had blonde hair in pigtails, like her mothers, but she shared the same brown eye color as Layla. In her right hand was a small plush version of her spirit Plue. She's so adorable!! Layla ran up to the little girl and hugged her. Nashi giggled and hugged back tighter.
"I wish I had Nashi as a sister Layla, she's so adorable!" Ashkii said, envious of Layla. Nashi stuck her small thumb in her mouth and smiled.

"Lwets plway Lwalya!" Nashi cheered. "Me want to swee swpirits!" Nashi, Ashlkii and Layla made their way back to the dinning hall.

Everyone moved away to see why Leon was shaking slightly. "Huh? Uncle, are you okay? You're crying.." Morgan states. Leon smiles at her, placing a hand on her head. "I'm alright..I'm just happy to be here with you all." He says, resulting in Morgan smiling. "Unfortunately though, I'm still rather tired, so I think I'll return to my room...but don't worry..I'll be seeing you soon enough." Morgan hugs him one more time before he returns back upstairs, closes the door behind him and gradually falls back asleep on the bed. When he next woke up, Leon realized he had returned to the world as he knew it. When he brought a hand to his face, he realized that he had shed a few tears while he was sleeping. "Everyone...I hope you're safe." He thinks. He then turns to see that Ashkii has woken up as well. "Are you alright?" He asks her.

[The Red Seelie]

Soul was Sitting around the dinner table talking with his parents about monsters and potion brewing. before a single note struck cord in his mind. "my father has be dead for so long Soul thought he was dead because he died protecting us forever. if hes alive No no nonono Soul Ran upstairs His parents giving chase. He pulled out the sleeping pill on his desk as he Shoved one down his gullet. the effect was next to instantous but soul recieved a scratch from his fathers hand causing his face to bleed. soul woke up in the real world leg still painfully healing itself. as he felt blood trickle down his face. it was a dream right...

[booksmusicanime]

"Yea. I'm just wondering what the hell happened..." Ashkii stated rubbing her head.

((Um just to note you can only wake from the dream if you find that the world isn't paradise.))

[BlueAjah]

"Nashi, welcome home!" Lucy greeted Nashi. All of the spirits waved as they walked back into the dinning room. Even Aquarius was adored by Nashi. Layla smiled at the thought. Nashi went to sit on Lucy's lap as Ashkii and Layla took two empty chairs. Their meal was almost complete, only dessert remained. A delicious molten chocolate souffle! It made Layla's eyes pop out. Lucy had really wanted this night to be special.

"So Layla are you excited for tonight?" Ashkii asked, with a smirk on her face.

"What do you mean? What's going on tonight?" Layla said confused. She didn't remember making any plans, did she?

"Your date of course! Don't you remember? How could you forget your date with him!" Ashki was bewildered as Layla's confusion. A date? Layla was dating someone? She couldn't seem to remember but like all the other issues, it slowly went away. She had a date!!

"Oh my date! How could I forget? I'm so excited!" Layla cheered.

"I knew this day would come!" Aquarius said grinning. If Aquarius was in a good mood, then something special was definitely happening. Could this day possibly get any better?

[ShadowVentus]

"I believe we were put under a spell..it put us to sleep and made us dream up some sort of paradise..." Leon states. "That place was no paradise...Olivia is long gone and my brother...he was never so carefree back then...his eyes always had the smallest hint of worry in them..." He holds his head with his right hand.

[booksmusicanime]

"I saw my mom..." Ashkii said wrapping her arms around her legs

[manapool1]

Red looked around his new red clad room, the beer seemed endless and free. Smiling in his new found stupor the man began to feel lonley looking at the count of all his drinks (17 before he could even get tipsy, flagons of it) he felt the boredom hit himself, something was missing, something cute, something sweet and something small. He missed the girl who he tagged along all the time, the one he had dubbed his 'daughter' as she gave him purpose in life. Now drinking heavier and darker brews. The remorse hit him harder as he felt his eyes begin to tear. The dream was all he wanted or so he told himself. Having aofie was truly all he wanted, everything else came second. The glass he drank from now crushed in his hand, red screamed loud as he let out his pain. Punching the walls, the man now noticed himself in a darker, browner tavern, his body on a table and his compainion's safely in a bed. She slept well and he tucked her in she was back in his possible grasp.

[ShadowVentus]

"I saw my brother and his late wife..." Leon says, standing up fully.

[BlackCat]

Fuyu walked over to where Leon and Ashkii stood, "My dream was downright crappy, I saw my mom. my mom! Oh and Aki is still sleeping, I think she's just happy our mom isn't a jerk it he dream,"
